Why am I only finding out about this now?

Being a fan of both Jeff Buckley and Cocteau Twins, and having had the huge good fortune of hearing both live, why did I not know about this until I was sent scurrying netwards today by The Guardian? Shame on me. I am now officially obsessed with this song.

Do you mean Greg D’s song “Love” (occasionally listed with a “Black” prefix), or the Afghan Whigs album “Black Love”?

If you mean the former, I’ll send it to you; if you mean the latter, I don’t have it. I’ve been working my way backwards through Greg’s career from The Gutter Twins through Twilight Singers etc., etc. I only have one Whigs LP so far, and if allmusic’s write-up is anything to judge it by, Black Love won’t be the second one I get!!
